tracy mcgrady is the type of player blessed with ideal athleticism and body, also instinct. But when it comes to using his brain, hes senseless. Thats the biggest difference between him and Kobe Bryant I think. He even has a better body than Kobe, but Kobe plays so much more methodically and strategically. Kobe understands the game better and knows how to control the tempo, draw fouls to keep the opposing home court in check. Kobe is a leader on his team, Tmac is just an indifferent ball player who lacks intellect and passion.

Nice job, John!

Dad ref again in this game. how could they call a foul on Yao when Howard threw him down with two hands!? I think that would be DH's 3rd or 4th.

This team needs someone who can attack the rim when things don't go there way from outside. Mike James played well in this game.

Also, agree with you on capping T-Mac's long jumpers, especially when no one can make them. He's got to be smarter than that - knowing to do something differently. But too often he does not.

Missing too many FTs ... what can you say? They were not paid enough?

I admire the Board of Directors of the Rockets, who are extremely patient and surprisingly accommodating with the Head Coach. If the Rockets scenario happens in the Eglish Premier League (Soccer), Rick Disaster Idleman would have been thrown into the jungle long ago.

Yao Ming should look at his future seriously now. Sure, he has other aspects to look at other than basketball. But remember, all your interests are hinged on your achievements in basketball. If you continue to decline under this Head Coach, all your other interests will dwindle too. Right now, you are still hot, because you have played under the Disaster for a quarter of the season only. But if you play longer under him, I cannot imagine what the situation will be. Look at the result of the All-Star Ballot and it is not hard to predict the future.
So, if you move to another city now, all your interests will still follow you, as you are still hot. If you close this restaurant, you can always open another one in another city. You have to take action before it is too late. It looks like that the Rockets are very reluctant to replace the Disaster.
